About These Birds

Buff-rumped Thornbill

The Buff-rumped Thornbill (<em>Acanthiza reguloides</em>) is a small passerine in the family Acanthizidae, native to southeastern Australia. Detailed plumage and behavioral descriptions of this species are limited in the available literature. It is typically associated with forest habitats, often occupying dry woodland and open eucalypt forest. The species constructs a domed nest (DM type); clutch size ranges from 2 to 5 eggs, with incubation lasting 16–21 days and fledging at 16–19 days. The Buff-rumped Thornbill is assessed as Least Concern …

Atherton Scrubwren

The Atherton Scrubwren is a Vulnerable small bird restricted to the rainforests of the Atherton Tablelands in Queensland, Australia. Weighing about 11.4g with a wingspan of 11.4cm, it forages through dense leaf litter and undergrowth for insects and invertebrates. Its restricted range makes it sensitive to habitat loss and climate change.
